Perfectly Practical #152 - Old Decanters

Whenever I go to estate sales, I always look for certain items and old decanters happen to be one of those items (milk glass, cast iron, and hats are a few other items I always look for since I'm sure you were dying to know.)  ;)

These are the classy old bottles with stoppers that liquor used to come in, instead of their cheesier modern counterparts.

Old liquor decanters are great for holding homemade extracts (pictured at top.)

They are also great for holding mouthwash (as above.)

You could use the bigger ones for tea or water served tableside.

What about to make/serve/gift homemade infused oils or vinegars?

Or homemade coffee syrups?

Or bubble bath?

Of course, you could always use old liquor decanters as they were intended...
